Actress Jennifer Aniston has laughed off rumours she keeps her blonde locks shiny by rubbing powdered aspirin into her scalp.

The ALONG CAME POLLY star, who has just emerged from a much publicised divorce from husband Brad Pitt, has heard some bizarre stories about herself in the media, but insists the aspirin one made her laugh the most.

She says, "Apparently I smoosh aspirins for my flaky scalp. I crush them and drop them into my shampoo.

"That's one of the funniest things I've heard."
